30.
Flashback: Rosalie's B'day.
"Happy birthday Rose!" Emmett and I exclaim as we enter Rose's room with a tray of breakfast (which we made by ourselves).
Rosalie groans from under the covers and tosses at pillow at us. "I'm sleeping", she says. "Go away."
"We made you pancakes", says Em, knowing she'll jump out of bed as soon as hears the magical word 'pancakes'.
"Pancakes?" asks an excited voice. Masen gets out of his mother's grasp and walks over. "Can me have some?"
"Sure kiddo", grins Em. "As soon as you get your Mom outta there."
"Mama!" exclaims Masen. "Wakey uppy. Daddy and Edwad made pancakes."
Grudgingly Rose pulls the blanket off herself and turns to us with bed hair. "Thank you", she says.
"Not a problem, Rosie", replies Em. "It's not every day you turn nineteen."
She smiles and sits next to Masen with crossed legs. She grabs a fork and digs in with enthusiasm. In between bites, she says, "I love you guys. This is delicious."
"I'm glad ya like it", I say as I toss her a neatly wrapped gift.
She tears off the wrapping paper and her jaw almost drops to the floor. "Edward?" she says.
"Yeah sis?"
"Did you make this?" she stares at the scrapbook which is nearly a two hundred pages.
"I had some help", I tell her. "Masen, Em, Allie, T and Jazz were more than eager to assist."
"Wow", says Rose, her eyes glistening with what I think are happy tears.
It took a long time to make the scrapbook. It was Alice's idea and I thought it'd be a nice gift for my sister. We got together pictures of our parents, friends, Rose herself as a child, some pictures of Emmett and a few of Masen, me, Alice, Jasper and Tanya. We tried to document every year of Rosalie Lillian Cullen's life from birth till age nineteen.
There are about fifty pages left which Rose can add to every year.
"Do you like it?" asks Emmett.
"Like it?" says Rose. "I love it."
"I thought so", says Em.
"So enjoy your breakfast", I say. "I've got to go to the office but I'll be back for the party, around seven-ish. Do you need anything?"
"No", answers Rose. "But Edward, seriously, this is amazing! You're the best brother ever."
That I am. "Tell me something I don't know, sis", I tell her with a cheeky grin. "I'll see y'all later."
Reviews are bribes which make me update faster. Just sayin'
